Rabbi Yaakov Mayer Rosh Hayeshiva 42 Noe Street, Carteret, NJ 07008 ph 732.969.2497 // e [email protected] A Message from Rabbi Yaakov Mayer Rosh HaYeshiva It is with a tremendous level of hakoras haTov that we stand here by Tenth Year Anniversary of Yeshiva Tiferes Yehuda Aryeh of Carteret. Hakoras haTov to Hakadosh Baruch Hu for enabling us to reach this point in the Yeshiva’s existence. Hakoras haTov for all those that were involved in making this dinner happen. And a special Hakoras haTov to the Honorees. Without them- this Dinner would still be a dream. Yeshiva Gedola of Carteret was grown to epitomize the ideals and values of Yeshivas Ner Yisroel. On a personal level, Rabbi Brown shlit”a and myself were given the opportunity to develop by the Yeshiva. Our Rabbeim are the Hanhalas HaYeshiva. The Yeshiva of Carteret was born in the koselei Bais HaMedrash in Baltimore. From the very inception of the Yeshiva in Carteret, Ner Yisroel was involved. Every zman we discuss and receive direction from the Hanhallas haYeshiva. We are truly honored to have The Mashgiach, Rabbi Weisbord shlit”a joining us as we recognize Yeshivas Ner Yisroel’s role in building Torah in Carteret. R’ Eli Lazarowitz grew up in Far Rockaway with Rabbi Brown and myself. I had the honor of being his Chavrusa for many years in Yeshiva of Far Rockaway. His beautiful middos and acumen in learning made, and continue to make, a roshem on me. The first year of the Yeshiva, we had the zechus to have Eli daven for us on Yom Kippur. He has always been a true supporter of the Yeshiva. As we watch him, together with his eizer kinegdo, Shira, raise a beautiful family, we know that they continue to imbibe klal Yisroel with these wonderful qualities. Rabbi Natan Fink was from the founding members of the Yeshiva. Perhaps he would best be called The founder of the Yeshiva. From the moment that Natan walked through the doors, he looked at the Yeshiva as his project. He put all of his efforts, and there was much effort needed, into building this makom Torah. We will always reap the benefits of those first years. Together with his eizer kinegdo, Rebbecca, they continue remain close to our families and the Yeshiva. The overwhelming response that we received in ads and donations makes it clear that everyone recognizes the unique honorees. It is with a heartfelt brocha that we are mispallel that they all should be continue to be zoche to be osek bitzarchei tzibbur for many years to come. A Message from Rabbi Azriel Brown Rosh HaYeshiva "התהלכנו עמו because ונעשה נשמע said כלל ישראל says that מסכת שבת )פח:( in רש"י We relied on the fact that Hashem loves us and we knew - בתום לב כדרך העושים מאהבה" is our קבלת התורה that we couldn’t handle. A prerequisite of תורה he wouldn’t give us a the מקבל loves us. We therefor respond to this relationship by being ה' knowledge that .תורה should grow in תלמידים One of the goals we had in establishing the Yeshiva was that the They should think big, and .לימוד התורה through their רבש"ע their relationship with the .תלמידי חכמים and עובדי ה' become in עולה מעלה that are being תלמידים we see many ב"ה ,As we look back on ten years from all the נחת should see only רבש"ע and the כלל ישראל that יה"ר .תורה ועבודה .both now and in the future תלמידים A Message from R’ Yaakov Tzvi Biderman Executive Director Over the past 10 years the Yeshiva has made big strides, overcame some very difficult obstacles, and is now growing in more ways than most know about. Student enrollment for this coming year is growing. Our debt from hurricane sandy is shrinking. As we acquire lots adjacent to our current properties, the Yeshiva campus is growing. We are also working our way toward becoming eligible for government grants and assistance. The two most prominent projects - is the launch of our Dormitory Building Campaign, to be located in our current parking lot, and we are in the planning stages of Mesivta in Carteret. Both are huge undertakings, which will help the Yeshiva grow significantly. It is with your chizuk and support, that we are able to make so much progress. I would like to thank the Roshei Yeshiva and Hanalah for their commitment to each talmid's success, and for their patience with payroll, even though it is still well behind. Thank you Yitzchok Levine, your continuous involvement in many aspects of Yeshiva is inspiring. Mrs. Esti Vago, thank you for all your work on behalf of Yeshiva, including this beautiful journal. Mrs. Michal Goldstein from MS Design, we greatly appreciate your design-work for many aspects of this dinner, and your commitment - even on Erev Pesach and Chol Hamoed – to working with Yeshiva. Rebbitzins Brown & Mayer and Malkie Mayer, thank you for all your help. Totty & Mommy, thank you for being the great role models you are. Thank you Avigail for allowing me to dedicate days and nights to the Yeshiva, leaving you as a single parent of Esther Nechama and Rachel Yehudis for the duration of the the dinner preparations. You Are Amazing! A Message from Rabbi Dr. Zev Brown Dinner Chairman It has been my privilege for the past 10 years to watch the Yeshiva Gedola of Carteret develop into a Mosod that has impacted hundreds of lives. Under the leadership of its venerable Roshei HaYeshiva - Rabbi Azriel Brown and Rabbi Yaakov Mayer - the Bochurim have been exposed to true Gadlus both in Ameilus Batorah and in Yedius Batorah. The gemorah in Tanis, daf zayin, explains that Torah is compared to water. Just as water, due to the forces of gravity, flows from high locations to low locations, so too Torah only has a kiyum with someone who does not hold themselves above others. Our Roshei HaYeshiva optimize this midah. They live and breathe Gadlus in Ameilus Batorah and Yedius Batorah but at the same time develop true and lasting personal relationships with their talmidim. Relationships that are life altering and that continue to grow and develop long after their talmidim have moved on from the four walls of the Carteret Bais Medrash. In its own quiet way, the Yeshiva Gedola of Carteret has unassumingly been making an impact on Klal Yisroel and has developed a reputation where a serious bochur can grow in all areas of Yiddishkeit and Avodas Hashem. May Hakados Boruch Hu give the Yeshiva Siatta Deshmaya to continue in its Avodas Hakodesh and may the Roshei HaYeshiva continue to see Hatzlocho in all areas.

    אושפיזי קורונה THE CORONA USHPIZIN Rabbi Jonathan Schwartz PsyD Congregation Adath Israel of the JEC Elizabeth/Hillside, NJ סוכות תשפא Corona Ushpizin Rabbi Dr Jonathan Schwartz 12 Tishrei 5781 September 30, 2020 משה תקן להם לישראל שיהו שואלים ודורשים בענינו של יום הלכות פסח בפסח הלכות עצרת בעצרת הלכות חג בחג Dear Friends: The Talmud (Megillah 32b) notes that Moshe Rabbeinu established a learning schedule that included both Halachic and Aggadic lessons for each holiday on the holiday itself. Indeed, it is not only the experience of the ceremonies of the Chag that make them exciting. Rather, when we analyze, consider and discuss why we do what we do when we do it, we become more aware of the purposes of the Mitzvos and the holiday and become closer to Hashem in the process. In the days of old, the public shiurim of Yom Tov were a major part of the celebration. The give and take the part of the day for Hashem, it set a tone – חצי לה' enhanced not only the part of the day identified as the half of the day set aside for celebration in eating and enjoyment of a חצי לכם for the other half, the different nature. Meals could be enjoyed where conversation would surround “what the Rabbi spoke about” and expansion on those ideas would be shared and discussed with everyone present, each at his or her own level. Unfortunately, with the difficulties presented by the current COVID-19 pandemic, many might not be able to make it to Shul, many Rabbis might not be able to present the same Derashos and Shiurim to all the different minyanim under their auspices.

  • Maspidim Remember Klal Yisroel's Rebbe, the Novominsker Rebbe
    Maspidim Remember Klal Yisroel’s Rebbe, The Novominsker Rebbe April 29, 2020 See the recording of the azkarah below. By: Sandy Eller Harav Elya Brudny, Rosh Yeshiva, Mir Yeshiva and Chaver Moetzes Gedolei HaTorah 22 days later it still seems impossible to believe. As Klal Yisroel continues to mourn the loss of the Novominsker Rebbe, Rabbi Yaakov Perlow ztvk’l, Rosh Agudas Yisroel, chaverim of the Moetzes Gedolei HaTorah and family members offered deeply emotional divrei hesped for a leader who was a major guiding force for Torah Jewry in America for decades. With state and local laws still in effect prohibiting public gatherings, maspidim addressed an empty beis medrash at Yeshivas Novominsk, an audience of nearly 60,000 listening through teleconference and livestream as the Novominsker was remembered as Klal Yisroel’s Rebbe. Normally echoing with exuberant sounds oftalmidim learning Torah, the yeshiva’s stark emptiness was yet another painful reminder of the present eis tzarah that has devastated our community. Rabbi Zwiebel waiting at a safe social distance while others were speaking. Throughout the over two hour-long azkarah, Rabbi Perlow was lauded for his unwavering devotion to Klal Yisroel, somehow stretching the hours of each day so that he could immerse himself in his learning and still give his undivided attention to the many organizations and individuals who sought his guidance. In a pre-recorded segment, Rabbi Shmuel Kamenetsky, Rosh HaYeshiva, Talmudical Yeshiva of Philadelphia, described the Rebbe as a “yochid b’yisroel” who cared so deeply for others that their needs became his. No communal issue was deemed too large, too small, or beyond the Novominsker’s realm of expertise, his sage counsel steering Klal Yisroel through turbulent waters when communal institutions such asbris milah, shechitah and yeshiva curriculums were threatened by public officials.

It relates to us the tragic story of the deaths of the two older sons of FRIDAY Aharon, when they apparently willfully mishandled the obligatory incense offering in the Mishkan/Tabernacle. The Torah reading also details for us the list of animals, 6:05 pm: Mincha/Kabbalat Shabbat/Maariv birds and fish that may be consumed by Jews in accordance with the laws of dietary (Shema should be recited after 8:26 pm) kashrut. At first glance, there seems to be no connection between these two disparate SHABBAT subjects. Yet, we are certainly aware that Torah has to be understood and studied Parasha: Page 588 / Haftarah: Page 1168 on many different levels and that the Torah is not subject to a completely haphazard arrangement of its prose and content. So, at some deeper, below the Kiddush this week sponsored by the shul. surface level, there may be a connection between these two matters that find 7:15 am: Hashkama Minyan themselves lumped together in one section of the Torah. (new start time, new location-MPR) Without stretching our curiosity too far, I think that such a connection can be made 8:30 am: Tefilla Warm-up with Ellyn Hutt regarding the death of the two sons of Aharon and the laws of kashrut, to justify (new location—Room 112) their proximity in this week’s Torah reading.

  • The Flame of Torah Burning Brighter Than Ever As 500,000+ Inspired by Global Siyumei Hashas
    The Flame of Torah Burning Brighter Than Ever as 500,000+ Inspired by Global Siyumei HaShas January 26, 2020 Photo above: View of the Crowd at the London Siyum Hashas 2020. (Photo Credits for this photo: Dudy Braun) by Sandy Eller Amid all the planning, predictions and even prayers for the 13th Global Siyum Hashas, not a single member of the massive team that planned the worldwide celebration of limud haTorah ever expected things to turn out quite the way they did. Starting on December 16th in Melbourne, Australia and moving on days later to Mexico City, the Global Siyum HaShas of Daf Yomi began a month-long trek across the planet, igniting an unprecedented passion for Torah in every city, at every siyum. Throughout North America, Europe, Australia and Israel, well over 500,000 people participated in multiple siyumim and like the mountaintop flames in Mishnaic times that signaled the coming of Rosh Chodesh from one locale to another, the torch of Torah circled the globe, setting hearts and souls on fire. Rav Meir Shapiro’s vision of a daily commitment to learning bringing Klal Yisroel together came to life like never before at the makom Torah that he founded in Poland in 1930, with the Siyum HaShas returning on January 1st to its birthplace, Yeshivas Chachmei Lublin. Inscribing another memorable page in the annals of history on the same day were epic siyumim at MetLife Stadium and Barclays Center, with thousands more flocking to Daf Yomi celebrations in Jerusalem and other locations. In the days that followed, the flames of Torah blazed an impassioned trail from the Western Hemisphere eastward, each of the ebullient Siyumei HaShas transcending time and space as they united in-person participants with hundreds of thousands of livestream viewers under a banner of Torah that spanned both continents and generations.
